Planned Giving Council Additional Resources

In 2018, the council raised $25,000 to establish The Donald H. Chisolm Planning Giving Council Children’s Hope Fund. To date, with member support, the fund has grown to $175,000! Each year this endowed fund provides support for the mission of Children's Mercy to transform the health, well-being and potential of children, with unwavering compassion for those most vulnerable.

In 2024, the Hope Fund will support Illuminate — a bold plan to address the youth mental health crisis in our community. You can join this important work by using donating today!
